Mamanu

Our new collection celebrates the story-telling patterns we print onto our siapo and etch into our skin. Mamanu is the Samoan word for these patterns, and learning what each of them symbolizes help us to understand the world of our ancestors.

EVERYTHING IS SAMOAN

We’re Samoan owned and designed.

Fun. Reflective. Samoan.

Our Commitment: Anava Tau designs are fun (we try), they are thoughtfully reflective of our language and way of life (so we can help each other learn), and – although everyone is welcome here – this brand will always, only ever be Samoan (it’s just who we are.)

Our Other Collections

If You Know, You Know

This collection is dedicated to our Samoan insiders – to us! – who know how our families are, who can chill with our slang, our pokas, our crazy sense of humour. It’s for Samoans who just… get it. Cause we know.

My Language in My Ear

That feeling when you’ve been away from home for so long that hearing a stranger speak your native tongue makes you cry. This one’s a celebration of the Samoan language that brings us together.

Proud Samoan

Whether you speak our language or are still learning, if you’re deeeep into our culture or living it your own way, however way the DNA flows through your veins, if you got love for Samoa, you deserve to be proud.
